AIR COOLERS

Aftercoolers Compressed air is hot and saturated with moisture & oil when it leaves the air compressor. Aftercoolers rapidly cool this air so that it can be easily handled. Both water-cooled and air-cooled types are available. Water-cooled Aftercoolers are preferred because they achieve lower air temp and hence more moisture removal. Air-cooled Aftercoolers are installed where water is very hard or there are other constraints on availability of soft cooling water. Separated liquids can be drained manually or by Auto drain valve.

Aftercoolers perform two essential functions that provide the necessary conditioning of compressed air. They reduce the temp of air to a safe operating range as well as remove moisture condensed during the cooling Process. Water-cooled Aftercoolers are of Shell & Tube type with the air passing through the tubes and water flowing in the opposite direction in the shell.
VERSATILITY: By a minor modification, the Aftercooler can also be used as:

Other Salient Features :

• Oil Cooler for Screw Compressor, DG Set & other machines (by removing Moisture Separator)
• Intercooler for Reciprocating Compressor (by adding Suction Drum)
• Compressed Air Dryer (by using chilled water, brine or refrigerant as cooling medium.)
• Heat Exchanger for cooling systems required for Moulding Machines, Generators & other heavy machinery.
